Eudora Welty

Delta Wedding is a 1946 Southern fiction novel by Eudora Welty. Set in 1923, the novel tells of the experiences of the Fairchilds family during a particularly unexceptional year in the Mississippi Delta. The novel's focus on the mundane and social life of the central South elicited considerable critique from contemporary critics.

“People are mostly layers of violence and tenderness wrapped like bulbs, and it is difficult to say what makes them onions or hyacinths.”
